It’s shaping up to be a better day today. I made a video blog which is still uploading at You Tube, gave the dogs a bath, and I’m just getting ready to go to the market to buy some chicken. For the first time in a looong time, I’m not the one who’s gonna cook. [...]

Filed Under My Art | 10 Comments
Just a couple of quick sketches, although I did get a bit color happy with it. I used Faber Castell Colouring Pens, a 30-color marker set which I got for P149.75 at SM Supplies a couple of years ago.
